Citrus and Crataegus Formula (Bao He Wan) Posted on March 20, 2012 by Al Stone, L.Ac., DAOM Details of Citrus and Crataegus FormulaShan Zha or Hawthorn Fruit helps digest meat and lower cholesterol.“Digest The Mess”This formula is called a “digestive” formula in Chinese medicine. This suggests that it helps the body digest. But the formula is really for sluggish movement from the stomach down through the intestines.When there is sloppy, sluggish, sticky, smeary stools with a strong odor this is the formula for you. This can show up looking like either diarrhea because the stools are not well-formed, or constipation because they are sluggish and difficult to get out of the body.Now, this formula only does half the job. This helps you digest foods that are difficult to digest. Obviously, you’ll want to pay attention to what you’re eating and look into finding out what is not easily digested and of course eating less of that.Foods that are difficult to digest include greasy, fatty, deep-friend, dairy, meaty things. If your restaurant has a take-out counter, you may be eating foods that are tasty, but ridiculously unhealthy. I’m guessing that I’m not telling you anything new on this one.Not everybody is VERY sensitive to dairy. This milk issue causing problems may be unique to those with a lactose intolerance. This often runs in genetic pools. Many Asians do not digest dairy well and so it may be that dairy is more of a problem for those who are lactose intolerant only.Alternative NamesBao He WanPreserve Harmony PillsHarmony Preserving PillsCitrus and Crataegus Formula Continue reading »Availability status: in stockOrder Citrus and Crataegus Formula100 grams powder (no capsules) @ $30.00200 grams powder (no capsules) @ $50.0050 grams powder (100 capsules) @ $25.00100 grams powder (200 capsules) @ $40.00Bulk discount: 200 grams powder (no capsules): buy 4 get 1 free @ $200.00Bulk discount: 100 grams powder (200 capsules): buy 4 get 1 free @ $160.00 Qty:
Astragalus Decoction (Huang Qi Tang) Posted on March 19, 2012 by Al Stone, L.Ac., DAOM Astragalus DecoctionHuang qi (astragalus) is famous for stimulating the immune system as well as the digestion.Alternative NamesHuang Qi TangSometimes, you simply haven’t got the “umph” to push out your stools. This is the formula specifically for this condition.It isn’t a purgative, there is no irritating the intestines to stimulate the bowel movement, rather this is a gentle formula that is taken over time at a low dosage to address the digestive functions while at the same time gently moisturizing the intestines to help guide out the poop.One of the key ingredients in this formula is Bai Zhu atractylodes which has been shown by research in China to be particularly effective for this unique kind of constipation.This constipation is unique in that it arises with a sort of lack of strength in bearing down. Another unique symptom of the pattern that this formula addresses is that one can feel fatigued after passing a bowel movement, even to the point of passing out.

Modified Six Milled [ingredients] Decoction (Liu Mo Tang Jia Wei) Posted on March 18, 2012 by Al Stone, L.Ac., DAOM Modified Six Milled [ingredients] DecoctionYu Jin or tumeric is becoming the darling of herbal medicine in The West. In China, it is simply one of thousands of great herbs.Alternative NamesLiu Mo TangIrritable bowel syndrome has only been identified by conventional Western medicine over the past 20 years or so. However, in Chinese medicine, the so-called “liver-spleen disharmony” has been around for much longer.As such, there are some well developed therapeutic herbal approaches this stress-induced form of disorder.The cause of this disorder comes down to how the nervous system responds to stress. When one is being chased by a bear, the nervous system ignores the digestion and focuses on blood flow to the limbs and muscles such that one can run away if necessary. However in modern times, while we’re not being chased by too many bears, our bodies can’t tell the difference between a threat from a carnivorous bear, and a work deadline.As such, stress can undermine the natural regulation of intestinal peristalsis (downward movement of the contents of the Stomach and Intestines.) This is the most common cause of irritable bowel syndrome there is.

Apricot Seed and Linum Formula (ma zi ren wan) Posted on March 12, 2012 by Al Stone, L.Ac., DAOM Details of Apricot Seed and Linum FormulaApricot seeds stop cough and lubricate the large intestines.Moistening and nourishing, this formula lubricates the intestines for itty-bitty hard-as-rock stools.This formula uses cannabis seeds as the source of oil in this formula. Oil is important for dry stools as it helps guide and lubricate the feces out of the body more comfortably.Currently in the USA, we’re not allowed to import marijuana seeds for this purpose anymore. I’m told that if there is proof that the seeds have been processed such that they cannot be germinated, we can use them.Fortunately, this ban on cannabis seed import doesn’t seem to affect the importation of the extract powders that we use at EagleHerbs. Obviously, you can’t grow a plant from the “freeze dried” extract of tea, so we’re good to go.Other ingredients in this formula stimulate intestinal movement by acting on the nervous system, and other herbs generate body fluids to help moisturize the dry poop.Alternative Namesma zi ren wanma tzu jen wanHemp Seed Pillmasi nin ganMashinin-gan麻子仁丸ましにんがん TJ126; TJ-126; TJ 126má zǐ rén wán麻子仁丸 Continue reading »Availability status: in stockOrder Apricot Seed and Linum Formula100 grams powder (no capsules) @ $30.00200 grams powder (no capsules) @ $50.00100 grams powder (200 capsules) @ $40.00Bulk discount: 200 grams powder (no capsules): buy 4 get 1 free @ $200.00Bulk discount: 100 grams powder (200 capsules): buy 4 get 1 free @ $160.00 Qty:
